Chapter Seventy-Three: The First Refining Medicine
In the narrow cave, the flames in the medicine tripod were reflected on the mountain wall, and the teeth and claws were constantly beating. Xiao Yan stared intently at the churning flames in the medicine tripod, his slightly pale face was covered with beads of sweat, refining medicine for a long time was an extremely exhausting job, and Xiao Yan's exercises at this time were only the lowest Yellow Order low-level, and it was difficult to have any advantages above the strength and durability, so it was already very difficult for him to insist on refining medicine for nearly two hours in front of the medicine tripod.
Squinting slightly, he watched Xiao Yan successfully refine the blood condensation grass into white powder again, and Yao Lao, who knew that he had reached the limit, nodded slightly, and said softly, "Okay, let's rest for a while." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yan's shoulders that he was trying to balance suddenly stepped down, his body seemed to be out of strength, and he lay down on the cold ground softly, panting heavily, his chest was constantly rising and falling, and his whole body was sore, and now he didn't even bother to move a finger again.
"Cultivation at this time has the best effect. ”
Glancing at Xiao Yan, who was lying on the ground like soft mud, Yao Lao faintly said martial arts.
After laziness and diligence fought for a moment in his heart, Xiao Yan had to sit up with a reluctant wail, his trembling hands posing out of the handprints of cultivation, and then slowly closed his eyes and moved the world.
Seeing Xiao Yan like this, Yao Lao smiled, and his eyes shifted to the dozen or so jade boxes placed in front of Yao Ding, which were filled with pale white powder extracted from blood condensation grass, which were the results of Xiao Yan's previous efforts.
Looking at the jade box from left to right, the pale white color is getting more and more intense, and when it comes to the last jade box, the white powder in it has almost reached the texture of pure white.
Looking at this extremely obvious progress, Yao Lao nodded in amazement, and once again praised Xiao Yan's excellent soul perception in his heart.
Glancing at Xiao Yan, who was recovering his fighting spirit, Yao Lao leaned cross-legged against the stone wall, leisurely closing his eyes and recuperating, now Xiao Yan has only refined the first material, and there are two more in the back, waiting for him to work slowly. \\
......
After closing his eyes and cultivating for nearly an hour, the cyclone in Xiao Yan's body, which was dim due to the exhaustion of his fighting qi, finally emitted a bright luster again, and this time, the halo seemed to be a little brighter than a few hours ago.
Slowly opened his eyes, the sour and numb feeling of powerlessness in his whole body also retreated by most of the time, twisted his neck, and the sound of bones colliding made Xiao Yan breathe a sigh of relief.
"Okay, then let's go on. Opening his eyes and looking at Xiao Yan, who had become vigorous again, Yao Lao smiled and said with a smile.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, after the painful refining process before, Xiao Yan finally understood that he had been fooled by Yao Lao, in the past, Yao Lao refining medicine, just stretched out his palm and burned it casually a few times, so that countless people went crazy The pill was hot and baked, such a simple process also left Xiao Yan with the impression that refining medicine was extremely easy, but now when he did it himself, he knew that this thing was even more tiring than hard work to move ore.
Now I understand, it seems to be a little late, so Xiao Yan had to sigh depressedly, sat in front of the medicine tripod again, and began to refine the essence of the other two medicinal materials.
With the previous experience of refining blood condensation grass, Xiao Yan this time was obviously much easier, after burning eight living qi fruits and ten poppies, he finally succeeded in refining the things needed to configure healing medicine from the two medicinal materials.
In the wild, some experienced injured mercenaries, if they do not have enough healing medicine, often twist the fruit into minced flesh to alleviate injuries and use them to alleviate injuries.
Extracted from the poppy flower, it is a reddish liquid, which has the effect of paralyzing the nerves, and can be used as a pain reliever.
Looking at the three medicines neatly placed in front of Xiao Yan, Yao Lao nodded slightly and said softly: "The required materials have been refined, now, let's fuse their medicinal powers together." ”
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan nodded with a solemn face, skillfully threw the pure white powder into the medicine pot, and then smoked it over a warm fire for about ten minutes, and after the pure white powder was slightly reddened, he quickly poured the liquid of the poppy into it.
As soon as the liquid entered the medicine pod, it was wrapped in pure white powder, and it tumbled slightly in the flames for a while, and the two gradually merged into a light red viscous liquid martial arts.
The soul perception struggled to control the temperature of the flames, slowly smoking the pale red viscous liquid.
Under the continuous smoking, the viscous liquid gradually turned into a dark red paste shape.
Staring at the dark red paste in the medicine pod from the transparent mirror, Xiao Yan hesitated slightly, and threw the black letter of the Living Qi Fruit into it.
The black letter entered the medicine pod, but there was no change, and the large mass of fine letter particles jumped back and forth in the flames, just refusing to merge into the dark red paste as desired.
"The resistance of various materials to temperature is different, so you must learn to control the temperature of the flame anywhere in the tripod as you like, where you need low temperature, you have to suppress the flame, and where you need high temperature, you have to let go of the suppression to increase the temperature of the flame..."
Licking his dry lips, Xiao Yan nodded, and hurriedly separated a cluster of soul perception, trying to control the flames under the fine letter grains and slowly raising the temperature.
"Bang..."
As the soul perception let go of the suppression of the temperature, a cluster of uncontrolled flames rose violently, and in just a moment, a small half of the black particles were incinerated into ashes, and Xiao Yan, who was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat, hurriedly suppressed the martial arts.
On the one hand, the soul perception has to maintain the flame temperature on one side, and on the other hand, it has to raise the flame temperature on the other side, this kind of dual-purpose requirement really makes Xiao Yan have a headache.
However, after several dangerous situations, Xiao Yan finally calmed down from his hurry, touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and took a deep breath, and the little fighting energy left in his body was all poured into the fire mouth.
Inside the medicine pod, the fine black particles finally burst unbearably at the ever-increasing temperature, and a pinch of jet-black powder slowly floated into the pale red paste, dyeing the latter's color even deeper...
When the last pinch of jet-black powder floated into the paste, Xiao Yan let out a long sigh of relief, and his palm slowly broke away from the fire, and with the withdrawal of Xiao Yan's palm, the flame in the medicine tripod was also gradually extinguished.
Looking at Xiao Yan, who was panting, Yao Lao smiled slightly, and with a wave of his palm, the lid of the medicine tripod flew away, and with a move of his right hand, the crimson paste of the large group in the tripod leaped out of thin air, and finally suspended in the cave in the air.
Glancing at the crimson paste that exuded a strong medicinal smell, the old medicine man's palm cut off out of thin air, and with the wave of his palm, the constantly flowing crimson paste was also divided into at least hundreds of small pieces of liquid paste.
He took the ring from Xiao Yan's hand with one hand, and with a flick of Yao Lao's fingers, hundreds of small jade bottles were suddenly filled with the narrow cave martial arts.
After placing the jade bottle, Yao Lao waved his hand casually, and the paste liquid in mid-air accurately fell into the jade bottle.
He took a jade bottle casually, Yao Lao smiled and handed it to Xiao Yan, and said with a playful smile: "Congratulations, you succeeded in refining medicine for the first time!"
Couldn't wait to take the jade bottle, Xiao Yan looked at the crimson liquid inside that was not too pure, but he couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and pride in his heart.
"Hehe, from now on, I will also be an alchemist!"
